The European 'Commission has issued a fine of €120 million to X for breaching its transparency obligations under the Digital Services Act (DSA).

The breaches include the deceptive design of its ‘blue checkmark', the lack of transparency of its advertising repository, and the failure to provide access to public data for researchers.'

‘How big tech is creating its own friendly media bubble to “win the narrative battle online’”…

At a time when the majority of Americans distrust big tech and believe artificial intelligence will harm society, Silicon Valley has built its own network of alternative media where CEOs, founders and investors are the unchallenged and beloved stars.’

"Trump is a crisis, and crises precipitate change..." - @pluralistic

You know, I really don't care which country does this, or does it first - I just care that it happens.

Moreover, I absolutely believe it *will* happen. It will *have to* happen. The only question is if it's before or after the broligarchy destroys tech as we know it.

Will we reappropriate tech, or will we revive it after it's broken?

"Ripping out all the proprietary code that powers our cloud software and devices and replacing it with robust, auditable, user-modifiable free/open source software is a massive project [that is] long overdue. It's a move that's in the power of every government, because it merely involves changing your own domestic laws to enable adversarial interoperability..." - @pluralistic

Nobody complains about spending countless billions on oil infrastructure. Just sayin.
